Risk Production Analysis of Small-Scale Beef Cattle Farmers in the Special Region of Yogyakarta, Indonesia
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Agriculture and Veterinary Science (IOSR-JAVS) - Year 2018, Vol 11, Issue 9
Abstract
Various problems related to the production of beef cattle faced became an essential issue in Indonesia. The purpose of this study was to analyze and compare the risk of small-scale beef cattle farmers production, to know the behavior of beef cattle farmers on the production risk, and also to know the effect of input use to production risk in the Special Region of Yogyakarta, Indonesia, between the farmers of fattening beef cattle self-ownership and partnership systems. A survey was conducted in Sleman, Gunungkidul, Bantul, and Kulonprogo Regencies, using purposive sampling method. The respondents are 240 beef cattle farmers who were interviewed using structured questionnaires, divided into 120 self-ownership and 120 partnership farmers. The technique used is the analysis of coefficient of variation (CV), calculation of aversion value on risk or amount of K(s), and multiple linear regression analysis with a heteroscedastic method. The results show that the production risk of fattening beef cattle farmers of self-ownership system is higher than partnership system. Most self-ownership and partnership farmers are similar since they prefer to avoid the risk (risk aversion). Factors that significantly affect and increase the production risk (risk-increasing factors) are forage variable and the frequency of extension in self-ownership system, concentrate variables on partnership system, while factors that significantly affect the production risk of beef cattle (risk-reducing factors) are dummy types of cattle, dummy livestock groups on the self-ownership system, as well as forage and labor variables on partnership system.
